I have been totally off effexor for 4 weeks and am still having to take (1) claritin every other day to curb the Brain flashes/Zaps. Would you say this par for the course??? That is the only withdrawal symptom I have at this point.
Do you know if the other "popular ADs" out there cause the brain zaps as well??? Reason being, I was on Lexapro/Zoloft/Paxil and finally effexor from 9/2003 to July 5, 2004 (last day of effexor). Probably just my brain trying to do it on it's own.Your thoughts.....
